ABSTRACT: Public and private partnerships in Chile are recognized in public concessions contracts, which incorporated arbitration as the method for solving disputes, in 1993. However, the experience of the last 15 years has shown the necessity of improving the arbitration system, by introducing the Dispute Boards as a pre- arbitral mechanism to solve conflicts during the performance of the projects. Within this context, the existence of this consulting body, whose members hold the trust and respect of the parties, and which is ready to respond to their requirements, allows most controversies to be solved in a quick and ideal manner.
